Epic of Jack Noir (Director's Cut) Listen on: Bandcamp

Witch's Cadence ✑ Bandcamp about blurb

"Epic of Jack Noir" was a song I made for the album Noirscape. It is a 9 minute behemoth of a song, that I spent lots of time and effort on to make it just right. However, I have a couple issues with the version featured on both official releases of the album, those being

A) Multiple mistakes that were never fixed in the final master
B) I personally am not really a fan of the mastering that was done on this track specifically

Now, first thing's first, I want to make a couple things clear. I hold no grudges with the person who did the mastering initially, and I think they are likely much more knowledgeable on the topic than I am, and yet, even when I first heard the original master it has always sounded too compressed and lacking in a certain clarity that I wanted for the song. This "new" version of the master that I am presenting to you now, is actually a version I did while waiting for the official master. It also fixes a couple of mistakes that I fixed and sent to the person mastering for the album, but wasn't included in the final version.

Considering all of these things, I also want to make it clear that I don't see either one as the "True" version of this song. If you like the other one better, than please by all means, continue to enjoy it! I however could not rest leaving my personal vision for it unseen.

This is all I have to say, thank you for reading my spiel.
